Trusted non-slip bath coating in South Bowood

Landlords, agents and businesses in South Bowood

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

If you manage property in South Bowood, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Non-slip bath coating in South Bowood without replacing anything

It’s a clear, textured coating, so it shows only as a slightly matt area where you stand. It suits homes with older or less mobile people, holiday lets and families. Whether it’s resurfaced baths that are now too smooth and a bath or tray that is slippery when wet, we can help, whatever the material.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. A soft brush and mild cleaner keep it clean. Do not use abrasive pads on the textured area.

Prices and what affects them

Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Access to the area
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Send photos for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath or shower tray
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We clean and degrease the standing area.
  2. Next we mask off the area.
  3. We put on the clear non-slip coating.
  4. The masking comes off to leave a neat edge.
  5. We leave it to cure, generally overnight.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Should you replace it?

The alternatives are replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or a bath mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for South Bowood. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why us?

  • No need to remove anything
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

When a repair isn’t the answer

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
  • Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
  • Outdoor surfaces

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we work on in South Bowood

  • Resurfaced baths
  • Wet room floors (ask us)
  • Shower trays
  • Acrylic baths
  • Enamelled baths

Common problems we fix in South Bowood

Baths and trays are made smooth so they’re easy to clean, yet with soap and water on them they become slippery. Textured areas on older baths wear smooth too.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Bath mats that harbour mould or get forgotten
  • Safety for older or less mobile people
  • Resurfaced baths that are now too smooth
  • Worn-out textured areas

Questions to ask before booking

  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • If travel is included in the price

South Bowood questions

Generally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

How do I get a price for non-slip bath coating in South Bowood?

The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
